Rumors: New Canon EOS 1D Coming in 2014

There are some rumors from Canon side and says there will be a new EOS-1D body to be announced in 2014. This EOS-1D body will have a big megapixel sensor, As we mentioned before in Canon’s 2013 roadmap we are probably going to see three new digital SLR cameras. This big megapixel sensor camera also rumored as Canon EOS-1S and Canon EOS 3D before.

Prototype cameras with sensors beyond 40mp do exist and are in the hands of very exclusive testers. However, we’re also told that a few lenses in the lineup will need updating before a large megapixel camera hits the market for Canon. No specific lens was mentioned, but I would imagine a full frame ultra wide zoom is one of those lenses.

Canon’s announcement date for a new EOS-1 may be dependant on when Nikon announces the rumoured 36mp D4X, Nikon cannot have two such cameras on the market while Canon remains quiet in my opinion.
